[QUOTE="Guest, post: 75880"] :lol: bit tongue in cheek at the moment Uncle Bob although when I got the SST I was also looking at PI machines & seriously considered an infinium but the $1700 or so price tag steered me back towards VLF's & the SST in the end. Only really used it once yet to give it a bit of a test out at Hill End. It ran pretty good although I did, as expected, have to dumb down the gain to stop it picking up every hot rock around. In the right area on a Goldfield I.e site with possible/known coins & relics it would be a great little machine to have some fun with in amongst the other junk. A cheap PI machine for some coin & relic hunting + as a backup is still something to think about though.
